You need Samba, it's in the ports: /usr/ports/net/samba After installing samba, you should be able to do something like: # smbclient //ntbox/printername smbclient> print some-file To print a text file. To print other files (eg PostScript) you could use apsfilter. Read /usr/ports/print/apsfilter/pkg-descr, or istall the port and read the manpage.
